Customer request for a smaller WST (wilderness survival tool). I like this for a more usable size. The pic is the profiled blade next to a full size WST. The larger one is 12 1/4" overall, 2" wide with a 6 1/4" blade, 6" cutting edge. This small one is 9" overall, 1 3/4" wide with a 4 3/4" blade, 4 1/2" cutting edge. Both are 1/4" thick but the smaller one can be made with thinner stock.

I've always loved the shape of your WST's, the smaller version should make a real handy hiking/camping blade !
